Sales rep fires up the ol' invoice form. "Anything > else today, sir?" "What else've you got?"

Then the sales rep would be able to give the caller a choice and the sales rep would still get a kick back. In reality, partnerships are about either increased sales or kickbacks. I think IMail just chose to sell/bundle Norton exclusively (saying it's a partnership) because they are getting a percentage of each sale. Did anyone see this partnership in the news or on Symantec's site? PostfixGate will be offering reseller opportunities in the near future. Check www.postfixgate.com periodically to watch for updates.
